Yeah, there's ads on the page now. When I had spent $0 on the website, I figured I shouldn't try to make money off of it. Now that I have to cover my costs (so far, $10.16 for a domain—if some miserable cretin hadn't taken the .com, I'd still be free and clear. I'm not bitter at all. Don't click that link. Just mouse over it.

Thanks to the Googles (what would we do without you, Larry, Sergey et al?) there's a nifty form on the home page which should make it super easy to submit statuses. And which should make it slightly more automated for me to update things. Which is great, because it has to be better than doing it all manually. (Yes, email and twitter will still be acceptable!)

I bet the form would even work from smart phones; I might make a standalone version for them. Later.

Someone (well, thanks to InstaTrace we know it's Homer Simpson of 732 Evergreen Terrace … our pledge enforcement van will be on its way—oh, wait, I mean, thanks to whois we know it's studio3k.com of Ocala, Florida). That's okay, because I jumped on tsastatus.net and it forwards now. Maybe Studio3k is trying to protect the URL for me since I wasn't jumping on it because I had, oh, 200 statuses to post. Or maybe studio3k is a ninny.

• Except for some pilot sites (TUL) very few small airports have the scan machines. Since, you know, no one ever started a terror-related trip at a small airport, like, say, PWM.
• Larger airports have scanners, but seem to use them sporadically, if at all.
• Airports with scanners often have ways to avoid them.

12/27: I went skiing all day and have 67 emails to post. And, oh god, the Twitters. Will work on it. Thanks! And, yes, I am hoping to make this more user friendly soon (i.e. search/sort by airport or date &c.). Lots of interesting information coming in though. I love the internet. Thanks to the person who pointed out the typo of "incidates" which has been fixed, too :)

And I might need a fifth status: scanners installed and in use, but it's possible to avoid them. If I do that, I'd add blue, so that we'd have the good old Homeland Security Threat Level color scheme. I must do this. I have.
